Exquisite PR68 1908 Barber Quarter
1908 25C PR68 PCGS. The 1908 proof Barber quarter, like many of its 20th century fellows, does not rate highly for attractiveness when brilliant, but patina is the great equalizer, and toned survivors can rate as well on scales of beauty as their 19th century counterparts. This exquisitely preserved specimen sports delicate blue-green and gold-orange shadings across much of each side. The strike is bold, and even under magnification, the fields come across as virtually flawless. One of just 545 pieces struck. Tied with nine others--five at NGC and four at PCGS--for numerically finest (6/09).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 242P, PCGS# 5694, GSID# 5509)
